Just Because...Androgyny

Man/Woman - Woman/Man

Just Because, we all deserve a break, Just Because it was all the rage once & Just Because this is an awesome photo it's time for some Androgyny!

"Boys in the girl's room
Girls in the men's roomYou free your mind in your androgyny" - Androgyny, Garbage

While it has never gone out of style, androgyny was really big in the 80's. It was also something I could never pull off, trust me I tried. Which is why I never partook in it.

So, it's time to play a little "Just Because" game. Can you guess who the two gender benders above are? Once is a music legend and the other is a critically acclaimed actress of extreme versatility.

Any thoughts? Any answers? 

Well I am not going to toy with you, the world can be frustrating enough these days. The answers are David Bowie & Tilda Swinton!

Now go do something today "Just Because"...

Seeing Red

The Women In Red
l-r
Dakota Johnson & Tilda Swinton

Since the Venice Film Festival happened the WWW has been flooded with impressions from it. This is one I found particularly striking, call it seeing red.

Why look it's Dakota Johnson & Tilda Swinton sauntering down the red carpet for a screening of their horror flick Suspiria. Look how red they both are, they match the carpet, but what about the drapes?!

Perhaps it's because there will be blood in the horror remake. Or maybe it's because they are red is the color of passion and they are both feeling quite heated. Then there is always the "just because" factor, you know, because they can and wanted to draw as much attention to themselves and their project.

Whatever! It's all fun and games until your film is poorly received, which luckily for this twosome it wasn't.

Off I go, I am seeing red at present of a totally different nature...

Michael's Musings

Cruel Summer?
Michael Shinafelt

This week was the end of a special chapter in my life. Yes, minions it was the series finale of Pretty Little Liars, a show that has always been there for me when I needed top notch escapist entertainment most. With a complete dash of reality to balance it.

Also this past week, June 25th 2017 marked the marriage of my awesome niece Shauna Waters to one Nick Kastner in Cabo San Lucas. 

Yep, this has been en eventful week, are you ready for what else I have to toss off your way? Well here it comes!

Sarcasm is my brains self defense mechanism for when I'm about to be murdered

I saw the Baywatch movie this week on the Sony Pictures Lot. Dumb, but fun!

Follow the yellow brick road. Why not?!

Pretty Little Liars was on for seven glorious seasons, it's gone now. I am bummed. Can you imagine how I will feel when another of my favorites Law & Order: SVU ends, that f#cker has been on for twenty seasons & counting!

Well wishes to my friend Diva Sandy Zacky who is recovering from knee surgery
